FastCo: Is Jazz School the Next Innovation Incubator?
In 2016 Michael wrote an article for Fast Company that built our confidence that we could write the book that became Two Beats Ahead. It was essentially a day-in-the-life of our Berklee College of Music course, Creative Entrepreneurial Mindsets.

At the end of each chapter of Two Beats Ahead we’ve created “interludes,” playlists of songs by the artists we’ve interviewed. Not only do they help you get to know the artists better, they create some breathing room between chapters to let the ideas settle in.
